OBJECTIVES

ISA 320 and ISA 530 on Audit Materiality and Audit Sampling respectively are among two of the most important auditing standards to ensure firms get the right audit evidence as efficiently as possible.
In this session we will cover the correct approach to assessing materiality in different situations, as well as how to use materiality to calculate sample sizes, given a range of practical situations firms face on real audits.
